Clinical Updates on Heart Failure and Cardiac Transplantation

Dear Colleagues,

Heart failure remains a significant global health burden, demanding the continuous refinement of diagnostic approaches, therapeutic strategies, and patient care paradigms. Moreover, cardiac transplantation stands as a life-saving intervention for end-stage heart failure patients, but it also presents complex challenges in patient selection, donor allocation, immunosuppressive management, and long-term outcomes.

Through the synthesis of cutting-edge research findings, clinical trial outcomes, and expert perspectives, this Special Issue aims to bridge the gap between evidence-based medicine and clinical practice. We welcome submissions that span various aspects of cardiovascular medicine and aim to delineate diagnostic and therapeutic approaches as well surgical techniques and personalized transplant protocols.

This call for papers presents an opportunity to contribute to a comprehensive exploration of the evolving landscape of cardiovascular medicine, fostering dialogue, collaboration, and ultimately advancements in patient care. We look forward to receiving your submissions and collectively shaping the future of heart failure and cardiac transplantation research.
